DURING A RAINSTORM, AFTER DARK, AND ON-THE-ROAD, I REPLACED MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WITH RAIN*X WEATHERBEATER WIPER BLADES TO IMPROVE VISIBILITY. THE BLADES WERE PURCHASED AT A TARGET (UPC 79118 00419) AND INSTALLED IN THE RAIN IN THEIR PARKING LOT. WITHIN 20 MILES OF HIGHWAY DRIVING LATER, ONE BLADE (DRIVER'S SIDE) BECAME DETACHED FROM THE WIPER ARM. THIS CAUSED SUDDEN LOSS OF VISIBILITY IN THE DARK AND IN THE HEAVY RAIN. I PULLED OVER THE SHOULDER, AND REINSTALLED THE WIPER BLADE. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I DOUBLE CHECKED THAT IT WAS INSTALLED TIGHTLY, AND ACCORDING TO DIRECTIONS. A FEW MILES LATER, IT DETACHED AGAIN. THIS TIME, I SWAPPED THE TWO BLADES, HOPING THAT ANOTHER FAILURE, IF IT OCCURRED, WOULD BE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. A FEW MILES LATER, FOR A THIRD TIME, THE DRIVER'S SIDE WIPER BLADE DETACHED FROM THE WIPER ARM. AT THIS POINT I REINSTALLED THE OLD AND BADLY FUNCTIONING BLADES. I SUBSEQUENTLY INSPECTED THE WIPER ARMS AND FOUND NO DEFECTS OR DEFORMITIES THAT MIGHT HAVE CAUSED THE FAILURES. THE WIPER ARMS WERE THE "J-HOOK" TYPE ON A 2001 SATURN L SERIES VEHICLE.

NHTSA complaint #10302878 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
THE HEATER/DEFROST BLOWER MOTOR ON MY 2000 SATURN LS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR THE SECOND TIME. THE FIRST REPLACEMENT WAS DECEMBER 2004. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I LIVE IN WISCONSIN AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DEFROST MY WINDSHIELD FOR VISIBILITY ONCE WINTER IS HERE UNLESS I REPLACE THE BLOWER MOTOR AGAIN.

NHTSA complaint #10191098 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
I HAVE HAD ONGOING PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2003. I PURCHASE THIS CAR IN AUGUST 2003. IN OCTOBER 2003, THE CAR WOULD NOT START. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE WRONG TYPE BOLT WAS IN THE BATTERY CAUSING THE CAR NOT TO START. I PURCHASED THE BOLT AT THE DEALERSHIP HAD IT INSTALLED. IN OCTOBER 2004, THE CAR STARTED SHIFTING HARD. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT NEEDED SOME TYPE OF VALVE AND THAT WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. AGAIN, THE DEALERSHIP INSTALLED THIS VALVE AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. NOVEMBER 2005, THE BLOWER FOR THE HEATING AND DEFOGGER ONLY WORKS WHEN THE CAR HAS SAT OUT IN THE SUN FOR A WHILE. IT DOES NOT WORK IN THE MORNING WHEN THE CAR IS INITIALLY STARTED IN THE MORNINGS. THREE DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS 2005, WITH ONLY APPROXIMATELY 68,000 MILES ON THIS CAR, THE TIMING BELT BROKE. IT DID NOT DAMAGE THE MOTOR AND I HAD IT REPAIRED AT A COST OF AROUND $900.00. THIS TIME I DID NOT HAVE THE DEALERSHIP DO THE REPAIRS BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY INCONVENIENT AND EXPENSIVE FOR ME TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHERE IT BROKE DOWN. WHILE LOOKING THROUGH MY OWNERS MANUAL, I NOTICED THAT IT STATED THAT MY TIMING BELT SHOULD LAST AT LEAST TO 100,000 MILES (MY THIRTEEN YEAR OLD NISSAN'S TIMING BELT LASTED UNTIL 120,000 MILES). WHEN I ADDRESSED THIS WITH YOUR CUSTOMER CARE LINE, I WAS TOLD THAT THE 100,000 MILES WAS JUST A SUGGESTION AND THAT THE BELT COULD ACTUALLY GO AT ANY TIME. I GUESS MAYBE THE WORD SUGGESTION/SUGGESTED SHOULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN THE OWNERS MANUAL BECAUSE THAT IS NOT HOW I UNDERSTOOD IT WHEN I READ IT AS PRINTED. JANUARY 2006, THE CAR STARTS HARD SHIFTING AGAIN AND AGAIN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS TIME THE TRANSMISSION CAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE OUT THE SPEED OF THE CAR AND IT WOULD COST AN ADDITIONAL $80.00 FOR THEM TO TRACK IT DOWN.
NHTSA complaint #10150245 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR ON MY 2002 SATURN L200 HAS FAILED TO WORK PROPERLY. I NOTICED THAT A SIMILAR RECALL HAD BEEN PLACED ON THE 2003 MODELS AND THOUGHT IT MAY BE RELATED.

DT: THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 SATURN LS1. THE CONTACT STATES THAT THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE DO NOT WORK. THE WINDOWS, THE HORN, AND BRAKES LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING. THE BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS, BUT THE WINDOW, HORN, SPEAKER, DRIVER SIDE TURN SIGNAL, AND THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED TO MALFUNCTION AT ONE TIME. THE CONSUMER INDICATES WHEN SHE ROLLED THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW DOWN AND BACK UP THAT WAS WHEN EVERY THING QUIT WORKING. THE SERVICE DEALER STATED THAT EACH COMPONENT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONSUMER HAS CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER.

NHTSA complaint #10115746 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
HEADLIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS FLICKER OR DIM REPEATEDLY AND/OR FAN SPEED FLUCTUATES RHYTHMICALLY WHILE COASTING OR BRAKING FROM HIGHWAY SPEED. NOT CAUSED BY OTHER EQUIPMENT BEING ACTIVATED/DEACTIVATED, WHICH WOULD CAUSE SINGLE MOMENTARY VOLTAGE FLUCTUATION, NOT RHYTHMIC REPEATED FLUCTUATION. THIS SITUATION COULD BE MISUNDERSTOOD BY OTHER DRIVERS AS FLASHING LIGHTS AS A SIGNAL. THIS SITUATION IS DISTRACTING TO ME AS THE DRIVER AS WELL AS OTHER DRIVERS. I AM CONCERNED WITH CONSEQUENCES TO MY VEHICLE (POSSIBLE PREMATURE ELECTRICAL FAILURE) AND TO DRIVER FROM MISINTERPRETATION BY OTHERS (AS NOTED IN PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS OF OTHERS -- POTENTIAL ROAD RAGE, TICKETS FOR OBSTRUCTION OF GOVERNMENTAL ADMINISTRATION, DISTRACTION RESULTING IN ACCIDENT). PROBLEM REPORTED TO SATURN DEALER 2003, WHO SAID IT WAS A KNOWN SATURN PROBLEM WITH NO CURRENT FIX. DEALER SUBSEQUENTLY ENCOURAGED REPORTING PROBLEM TO SATURN CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER (11-03), WHO ACKNOWLEDGED IT AS A KNOWN SATURN PROBLEM WITH NO CURRENT FIX. REPORTED PROBLEM AGAIN TO SATURN CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER 7-04, WAS ASSIGNED CASE NUMBER 1-12683522, WHICH IS STILL UNRESOLVED. WITH SATURN'S ANNOUNCEMENT OF DISCONTINUANCE OF L-SERIES, I SUSPECT SATURN WILL NOT PUT MUCH RESOURCE ON RESOLUTION. SAME SOUNDING PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED PREVIOUSLY TO NHTSA BY AT LEAST 7 OTHER PERSONS BETWEEN 9-5-02 AND 11-2-04 (COMPLAINTS 10018612 10010867 10016509 10026872 10049765 10099604 10098481). NHTSA ACTION PE03017 OPENED 4-17-03 AND CLOSED 8-15-03 SUMMARILY DISMISSED SOME OF THESE COMPLAINTS AS CAUSED BY VOLTAGE FLUCTUATIONS CAUSED BY OTHER ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT BEING ACTIVATED/DEACTIVATED. THIS IS NOT THE CASE!
NHTSA complaint #10106168 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
CURRENTLY THE BLOWER MOTOR FOR THE HEATER/DEFROSTER IS NOT WORKING. I HAVE HAD MANY MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR, INPARTICULAR WITH THE BRAKES AND STEERING. THE RACK AND PINION WAS REPAIRED TWICE. I HAVE HAD BRAKES REPLACED TWICE, AND RECENTLY THE BRAKE DRUMS, ROTATORS AND PADS. I HAVE HAD THE POWER STEERING PUMP REPAIRED AND FROM TIME TO TIME NEED TO HAVE THE STEERING WHEEL LUBRICATED WHEN IT STARTS TO MAKE NOISE AGAIN. I AM WONDERING IF I AM THE ONLY ONE WITH THESE PROBLEMS OR ARE OTHERS WITH THIS SAME CAR HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WHEN I AM DRIVING THIS CAR. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES TO HAVE THINGS CHECKED WITH WHEELS AND STEERING.
NHTSA complaint #10104862 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
HAVE OWNED THE CAR, 2000 LS1, SINCE IT HAD ABOUT 8K MILES. HAVE HAD TO BUY 3 SETS OF TIRES SO FAR DUE TO IRREGULAR WEAR. BEEN TO SATURN DEALERSHIP AND OTHER GARAGES SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THIS BEFORE FINALLY LEARNING FROM SATURN THIS PAST SUMMER THAT THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL ARE DEFECTIVE AND THAT SATURN HAD PUT TOGETHER A SHIM KIT TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS SOLUTION WOULD COST OVER $500, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU COUNT THE FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT THAT WOULD ALSO BE NECESSARY. ALSO HAVING BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEMS. BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T WORK WHEN PARKING LIGHTS ARE TURNED ON. HAVE REPLACED BULBS SEVERAL TIMES, PARTICULARLY THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT. MECHANIC CLEANED AND ADJUSTED THE SOCKET'S CONTACT POINTS, BUT 3 WEEKS LATER THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT WAS NOT WORKING AGAIN. WIPERS DON'T GET WINDSHIELD CLEAN, EVEN WHEN BRAND NEW. AUTO UNLOCK STOPPED WORKING.
NHTSA complaint #10098015 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.
THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD SKIP AROUND ON THE WINDSHIELD WHEN IN USE. THE DEALER HAS SERVICED THE WIPERS SEVERAL TIMES BUT CAN'T CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *NM THE WEATHERSTRIP ON THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS DISCOLORED. THE LF SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTER KNOB WAS MISSING. THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE DASH RATTLED AROUND THE VENT AREA WHEN SLOWING TO A STOP. THE TECHNICIAN DETERMINED THAT THE LEFT FRONT DOOR WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT CAUSING NOISE AGAINST PRIMARY WEATHERSTRIP. THE WINDSHIELD WASHERS WERE INOPERATIVE BECAUSE THE HOLE WAS PLUGGED. TECHNICIAN REMOVED AND CLEANED THE WASHERS. THE VEHICLE BRAKES WERE NOISE IN THE MORNING DURING THE FIRST COUPLE OF STOPS. THE CONSUMER INITIATED A LEMON LAW CLAIM WITH THE BBB REGARDING THE DEALERS INABILITY TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WITH THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THE CONSUMER'S CLAIM WAS DENIED.

I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW AND IT WAS IN THE SHOP TWO WEEKS LATER. SO FAR I'VE GONE THROUGH 2 CATALYTIC CONVERTERS, 2 ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES. I THINK ONLY ONE COIL, WITH A COUPLE OXYGEN SENSORS TO GO ALONG WITH THAT. BOTH OF THE CYLINDERS HAVE GONE OUT ON THE CLUTCH. I'M STILL WAITING FOR SATURN TO CALL ME ON AN AIR CHECK VALVE THAT SUPPOSEDLY FAILED. AS FOR THE POWER LOCKS, THEY JUST SEEM TO LOCK OR NOT TO LOCK WHEN THEY FEEL FIT TO DO SO. I ALSO GET A SERVICE LIGHT THAT COMES ON WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT TO.....

THE REAR DEFROSTER IN MY CAR TURNS OFF AUTOMATICALLY AFTER ABOUT 10 - 15 MINUTES. I HAVE FOUND THIS DESIGN TO PRESENT A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO ME WHEN I OPERATE MY VEHICLE DURING A SNOW STORM. DURING A SNOW STORM, THE REAR WINDOW IN MY CAR FOGS UP UNLESS I CONTINUOUSLY RUN THE DEFROSTER! (I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM WILL OCCUR IN MANY CAR MODELS.) MY DEFROSTER TURNS OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I DON'T REALIZE I HAVE A PROBLEM UNTIL THE WINDOW FOGS UP MAKING MY VISIBILITY VERY POOR. I THEN HAVE TO TRY TO GROPE FOR THE DEFROSTER SWITCH TO TURN THE DEFROSTER BACK ON. WHEN I AM FORCED TO REACH FOR THE DEFROSTER BUTTON WHEN DRIVING ON AN ICY ROAD, I AM PUTTING MYSELF IN DANGER, ESPECIALLY IF THE SUN HAS SET. DURING A SNOW STORM IT IS IMPORTANT TO BE FOCUSSING ON THE ROAD, NOT GROPING FOR A SWITCH EVERY 10-15 MINUTES. THIS DEFROSTER DESIGN HAS TWO DISADVANTAGES FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT. FIRST, MY REAR WINDOW REPEATEDLY FOGS UP UNEXPECTEDLY AT VERY CRITICAL TIMES. SECOND, I AM FORCED TO DIVERT MY ATTENTION FROM THE ROAD DURING THE WORST TYPE OF DRIVING CONDITIONS IN ORDER TO TURN ON THE REAR DEFROSTER.

AUTOMATIC HEATING SYSTEM LOCATED IN A LOW AREA OF THE DASHBOARD MAKES IT VERY HARD TO ADJUST WHILE DRIVING. CONSUMER FEELS THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, HAS ALMOST BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT.
